Got 2 pots of lantana today for $1 each at Lowe's so here we go! I definitely will buy more of it in the spring. As i said in the post, it is sold at Lowe's here as a "perennial" but oh my, there's always tons of very sad looking plants on the clearance tables. If it's anything like impatiens, I will do fine getting the shabby plants and giving them TLC. I usually by flats of poor impatiens on clearance, feed and water them, and they go like crazy for the rest of the summer. Must...stay...busy...must....stay...out of....trouble. *HA*
